Player to run to white cone and change direction to another cone. Starting with Predicted cones and the first low angled cones. Running at 40% ME and sprinting (70%) to the cones then decelerating after cones.
Progressions : Changing direction to the other cones with dotted straight lines. To increase angle of change of direction.
Change direction to a side step. Increase intensity of runs. Start to make drill unpredicted - don't tell player which cone until at the white cone or near.
regressions: Keep low angle cones, Don't increase sprint after white cone. Decrease distance.
Rationale: Change of direction is functional to football and predicted and unpredicted play occurs frequently in football so the hamstring and player will need to understand reaction times.
Unpredicted - Increases reaction time (Whitney et al., 2000) due to the increase in activity within the temporal facilitation mechanism due to reacting to an external stimuli.
